Investigates the recurrence and aesthetic significance of images of food, appetite and consumption in works by F.T. Marinetti, Aldo Palazzeschi, Massimo Bontempelli, Paola Masino and Luigi Pirandello, published 1905-1939, revisiting these texts under the ‘modernist’ label, which has traditionally been shunned by the Italian critical establishment.
